About

I’m a Software Engineer at J.D. Power, building reliable, performance-minded web applications and investing in developer experience and testing that let teams move fast with confidence.

I graduated from Western University with a Bachelor of Engineering - Software Engineering. That foundation sharpened my focus on clean systems, thoughtful UX, and shipping quality.

Day to day, I care about fast interfaces, resilient backends, and the tooling that keeps everything humming - from CI to automated tests.

Fun fact: when I’m off the keyboard, you’ll usually find me playing soccer or gaming.
